Bringing a Galaxy Note 7 onto an airplane is now considered a federal crime

Earlier this week, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) officially banned Galaxy Note 7s from being brought onto airplanes, and under a new Emergency Restriction/Prohibition Order, it’s now a federal crime to fly with the device.

The FAA issued Emergency Restriction/Prohibition Order No. FAA-2016- 9288 on Friday, which states that as of noon on October 15, fliers are prohibited from bringing the device onto an aircraft. The order restricts passengers from carrying the phone “on their person, in carry-on baggage, in checked baggage, or as cargo,” and says that anyone who inadvertently brings one on a plane must power it down immediately. Carriers are also required to “deny boarding to a passenger in possession” of the phone.

Passengers who bring a Note 7 onto a plane are “subject to civil penalties of up to $179,933 for each violation for each day they are found to be in violation (49 U.S.C. 5123),” and could be prosecuted, which could “result in fines under title 18, imprisonment of up to ten years, or both (49 U.S.C. 5124).”
